The annual public meeting of the Polym
MAN Society was held at Hathorn Hall Fri
day evening, and despite the inclement
weather, one of Lewiston's best audiences
was in attendance. 1t was a first class en-
tertainment in every particular. Indeed the
exercises in excellence and interest are
generally considered fully equal to any ever
given here. The defamation by Pinkham,
81, was delivered in q remarkably easy and
pleasing manner, as was also Miss Dora
Jordan's recitation. The debate on the
question, SIS Capital Punishment Justif-
able" by A. E. Hatch, 'S9, affirmative, and
B. M. Avery. 'SS, negative, was pointed and
ably handled. The defamation by White

novel and enthusiastically received by the
audience. The Grafton on ''Dynamics of

IS, to be sound thinker and good speaker.
The poem-"An Open Secret" was one of
Arthur Townsend's best, and the paper,
The Polymnian Oracle" was carefully
edited by Miss Grace Pinkham aud II. j.
Piper, and abounded in jokes and sharp
hits. The music by Misses Fairbanks and
Fassett of the society. and Miss Helen Nash
was highly appreciated.
The annual sale of the papers and periOdi-
Gals, OF the reading room occurred last
Wednesday evening.
The exercises of the second division of
Sophomore debates were held THURSDAY
afternoon at the chapel. II. b. Davis, Miss
Dora Jordan, f. l.. Day, affirmative, and ii.

At special business meeting of the
Polymnian Society Saturday evening, a re-
port of the committee appointed about
month ago to amend certain bylaws of the
society, was read and accepted. A commit

pointed to consider the advisability of
purchasing piano.

The republican party is harmoni-
Gus and united for the whole ticket,
and every man ON the ticket can bo
elected by handsome majority by
proper'effort. The dissensions among
the democrats will help the repnbll-
cans TO pile up big majority for
their ticket, but there must be no
tagging among the members of the
party. Every man who claims to be
a republican must take off his coat
and go to work for the ticket and

Mr.. F. G. Hoffman, living two and
half miles north of town, came in
with some very fine samples of sod
corn, millet, potatoes, beans, peas,
peanuts and last but not least, some
extra fine alfalfa. On the 9th of
August it will be remembered the
whole country just north of town
was beaten down and the crops de-
molished by hailstorm. Mr.. Hoff-
man says few days before the
storm his crops were as far advanced
as they are now. His sod corn
Strengthened up and although almost
destroyed by the hail, will still make
an average of fifteen bushels to the
acre. Mr.. II. further states that he
will have between two hundred and
two hundred and fifty bushels of po-
tatoes, off of two acres, and his fam
lily has used potatoes from the patch
since the first of June. His millet
was almost totally destroyed, still he
will cnt an average of two ton per
acre. The alfalfa will average about
four tons to the acre, and demon
strates the fact beyond a boubt that
it will take the lead in this country,
as TODD for stock. 1t seems to be
hardier and less effected by the ex-
tremes than any other cereal we have
tried in this vicinity. The peas and
beans, that Mr.. H. brought in were
undoubtedly on par with any ever
produced upon first sod, in Kansas
or any other state.-Yilas Democrat.

If you see a democratic candidate
with a weary. tired look upon his
countenance, don't ask him what the
trouble is. In all probability some
prominent democrat upon whose
support he counted has just told him
that he considers his republican ap-
ponent better man for the place.
Statements of this kind are numcr-
Qua just now, and they mako the
average democratic candidate feel
very lonesome.-Pueblo Chieftain.

A dispatch to the Denver Republi-
can from Las Animas last Saturday
says:-This evening just before dark
Jennie, the little 5-year-old daughter
of Mr.. Luke Cahill, County Commis-
sioner of Bent county, fell into the
Arkansas river and was drowned.
Mr.. Cahill lives near the south bank
of the Arkansas river, opposite Fort
Lyon, and about five miles east of
Las Animas. His little children
were down by the river at play, when
word came to Mr.. and Mrs. Oahill
that Jennie had fallen into the river.
Mr.. Cahill and Mr. Bradley, who
happened to be there, hurried to the
river but could see nothing of the
body. They ran down the river
about half mile and saw the body
of the child lodged upon sandbar
in the river. They rushed through
the wafer to where the body lay, but
life was extinct.
Mr.. and Mrs Cahill have the warm
est sympathy of the entire ccmmuni-
ty in their bereavement. About
three years ago little son was fatal
ly injured by falling from load of
hay and died a few days after the
accident.

and playing it well, was John Matthews, a
man who for years has lived under the shad-
of great tragedy. John Matthews and
John Wilkes Booth we're schoolmates in a
Maryland academy. They grew up together,
and together chase the stage for their pro-

On that fatal night when Lincoln was shot,
Matthews was playing in the company head
ed by Laura Keene, which held the boards
of the old National Theatre in Washington.
He was on the stage when the shot was
fired, and as the assassin jumped from the
presidential box and hurried across from the

sin was his friend. Subsequently Matthews.

SUPERIOR COURT.


FRIDAY-Wellington Burnett vs. George II
Blake W. II. Sanborn and Frederick A. libby
actlon on promissory note for S5o5, dated Feb
plaintiff, signed by George II. Blake and endorsed
by the other defendants. The defendants filed a
plea OF the general issue with no brief statement
and i is not entirely clear from the testimony
whether the defense is want of consideration or
partial failure Of consideration.
The facts, briefly, are these: In Santemher
1886. George II. Blake, for himself and others.
purchased of d. L. Bangs the righ; for the STATE
OF Maine In patent carburettor and air pump 10

for $1,000. At maturity the note, not being paid
was put in the hands of Mr. L. M Rand COUNSEL
ciates, during negotiations with Mr.. Rand
for settlement, stated that the use of the car
BoaTd II ana dI pp Tas by the
State; and that Mr. Bangs, the payee of the note
OF which Burnett owned third interest. and Bur-
nett himself, had promised to have the restriction
as 10 their use removed but that IL had not been
removed, and they We're therefore unabIe TO sell
any county rights; except one, that OF Waldo,
from the sum offered, the purchaser himself
agreeing TO look out for the insurance. But not
outstanding these facts, upon the presentation
Of the note and after negotiations, the promissors
paid 5000 In cash and gave the note in suit with
the additional name of 4. A. Libby, who was in
terested IN the original purchase. The defense
now Is that the restrictions by the insurance COM
panies to the use Of the carburettOr and air plmp
have never been removed, as il is alleged both
Bangs and Burnett promised that they would be-
and therefore the defendants have been unable 10
dispose OF the county rights, or make available
the property IA the patent right purchased except
as above stated
One other difficulty in the way Of the defense
seems TO be, that soon after The purchase by
Blake OF the patent right. he tranferred It By
deed to corporation called the ''Maine State
Heat and Light Company" Of which the defend
ants are the directors and own the majority of the
stock but not the whole OF il. Decision reserved
